Conroy, a Montague-area resident, died as a result of injuries sustained in the 2:45 p.m. crash at Whitbeck and Fruitvale roads in Montague Township, said Muskegon County Undersheriff Dan Stout.

Conroy was pronounced dead at the scene, Stout said, and his girlfriend, who was a passenger in the his vehicle, was transported to Mercy Health Partners Hackley Campus for her injuries.

The accident remained under investigation Friday, May 17, he said. Conroy’s vehicle was struck by a vehicle heading west on Fruitvale Road, Stout said.

Authorities at the scene said the crash occurred when a black Honda Civic heading south on Whitbeck Road failed to stop at the stop sign, causing a Chrysler Voyager minivan to broadside the vehicle, according to police.

The Civic rolled several times before coming to rest in a plowed cornfield next to the intersection, according to police.
